A Nude Refresh

Today I have a refresh for Orly's Nite Owl. I originally wanted to stamp some lace designs on my nails in black over the nude but changed my mind last minute and went with a flower pattern instead. To keep the design subtle I used a black polish for stamping that I wouldn't normally use, it is much thinner than my regular stamping polish, so the final stamp wasn't so dark or harsh. For the design I used A Cheeky XL plate, E.

Over top of the design I opted to use a glitter topper instead of a top coat, I went with one of the new polishes I just picked up, Silver Lining. It is not shown in the photo, I actually grabbed the wrong bottle of Kleancolor polish lol oh well, you saw what the bottle looks like in my last post. It is a silver glitter with random purple hex glitter. I love how the hex glitter went together with the flowers, they look like they were included in the design and precisely placed. It's nice when things work out like that!
